I's Married Now

My Own Zumba Studio!

I have falled in love with teaching Zumba classes and making a difference in people's lives.  I also love my job as the Fitness Director at St. Stephen Church!

About a month ago, I opened up my own fitness studio called charizYa Fitness.  It's in St. Matthew's and we've created a great Zumba family.  Right now it's 4:40am and I am up because in 20 minutes LivingSocial will feature my Zumba classes at an amazing price.  It will be an awesome way to introduce people to my Zumba classes and create new members of our Z-family!!

I hope it goes well!!

74!!! (no really - 74!)

This year I started teaching Zumba classes at First G Church on Thursday evenings at 6:00pm.  I had no idea with the type of turnout we would have.  Well, this past Thursday was our second class.  To my surprise - 74 women came out to get in shape.  It is such an amazing feeling to be an instructor and look out and see that many women filling a gym to better themselves.  I'm a true believer that working out is not a individual sport.  So, at the end of each class we do something that helps each of us get to know each other.

I've found my motivation and my drive.  While others come to me for empowerment and enthusiasm, I find myself equally seeking the same in them!  2011- the year of fitness!!!

Part II

One Crazy Morning I

I woke up bright and early on Friday morning (3:30am to be exact) so that Fox in the Morning could come to my house to film for their show.  They filmed several segments where the reporter, Keith Kizer, demonstrated at-home gadgets and asked me for alternatives.  He kept me laughing the entire time.  Check out one of the links below:
